Supporting Virginia’s Sheriffs & Deputies

Considering recent reductions in federal and state funding for senior nutrition programs, the Portsmouth Sheriff’s Office expanded its commitment to community well-being by introducing the Senior Meals Program earlier this year. This initiative builds upon our longstanding tradition of providing holiday meals, made possible through collaborations with valued community partners. By offering nutritious meals twice a week, the program not only ensures essential nourishment for our seniors but also fosters social connections, helping to combat feelings of loneliness and isolation. This expansion reflects our dedication to supporting the health and happiness of our senior community members at no cost year-round.
